A woman recently wrote to commend Communications Officer Joel Klein, CAPS Officer Aaron Grayson and Second Precinct Officers Jeffrey Urban and Richard Price for their help in recovering her car from an illegal auto repair shop. CO Klein was helpful and kind as he sent the officers to her location, the woman wrote. “These officers stayed with me the entire time I confronted the man about my car,” she wrote. “I cannot tell you how impressed I was with every one of them. All of these officers should be commended for their fine work. Officer Urban even went a step further and followed up by calling me this morning. He collected a bit more information and also gave me information he thought could be helpful to me.”
